Theme Edits

Hello geektutor,

I trust you are doing well today!

1.
a full image on header with button Enroll Now(with a link to enroll)
The CoursePress plugin has it is own shortcodes library. You can find the full lost of shortcodes in CoursePress > Settings > Shortcodes tab.

To show course enrollement button, use this shortcode on your home page:

[course_join_button]

3 featured courses showing image, name, summary, price and instructor on 3 columns with a button below it showing show all courses.

Here are the shortcodes that you can try:
[course_media] – Displays either the list image or the featured video
[course_title] – Displays the course title.
[course_summary] – Displays the course summary/excerpt.
[course_cost] – Shows the pricing for the course or free for unpaid courses.
[course_instructors course_id=”5″] – Display a list or count of Instructors ( gravatar, name and link to profile page )

2. I will love if my courses pages can look like https://onboardly.com/the-ultimate-pr-machine/ by telling me the necessary things to do

Please use the shortcodes above to make it look like on this page. To show course featured video use:

[course_featured_video]

Please note, each course has course_id=”ID” attribute, you need to change the ID with the actual course ID.

3. Use a full width as I dont like the container of coursepress

This depends from the theme you have activated on your site, currently you have the CoursePress theme, so to make you site full width add this CSS codeto a CSS editor:

.site-content {
    width: 100% !important;
}

If you don’t have CSS editor, please try the Simple Custom CSS plugin.

I hope this helps!

Cheers,
Nastia

Hi,

Thank you for your reply.

I am using coursepress theme and i cant see the option to change the feel of the header – replace that text and the menu.

I want my homepage header to have an image, with a two menu button – login and signup in the middle of the picture.

How can i achieve this with coursepress?

And then my homepage shows that no post yet, ready to post.

I’m not a novice so giving me simple step by step will help me achieve what i want.

How also can i design the courses page to show like onboarly since there is no pages for courses.

Do i create a pages called courses and insert the shortcodes you sent.

Now, what css do i need to make it look good as onboardly.

I’m using coursepress pro + theme.

PS: my wpmudev subscription just expired and i dont want to upgrade again unless i see that there is a solution to this issues.

Hello geektutor1

I am using coursepress theme and i cant see the option to change the feel of the header – replace that text and the menu.

You can add menu from Appereance > Menu, set your menu as your Primary Menu

If you want to hide the plugin’s menu (screenshot) – go to CoursePress > Settings and uncheck “Display menu items” option under Theme menu items

If you are looking for more advance design, you can achieve this with a custom CSS and PHP code, however this is out of a scope that we can provide in this forum. Here we can provide support only for issues regarding the CoursePress lite plugin.

And then my homepage shows that no post yet, ready to post.

If you don’t have posts created, your home page will not have content. You can set any static page as your home page from Settings > Reading.

Thank you,

I’ve been able to add the image with what i could find from my subscription at wpmudev.

I use coursepress pro.

I’ve added image to the header.

Can you provide with the css and php?

Hello geektutor,

Can you provide with the css and php?

As Nastia mentioned custom design of CoursePress theme is our of scope of forum support.

How also can i design the courses page to show like onboarly since there is no pages for courses.

If you are not comfortable with writing CSS and PHP yourself I can suggest hiring a developer that will implement those changes to the theme as those changes are far from what we can write on support forum.

kind regards,
Kasia

Hi – I’ve tried using this codes:

[course_media] – Displays either the list image or the featured video
[course_title] – Displays the course title.
[course_summary] – Displays the course summary/excerpt.
[course_cost]

on a page so I can change it to my homepage, and it doesn’t work?

The course page doesn’t go to a list of courses either – https://www.zoomtechschool.com
